New York City

From families who have lived in Bed-Stuy brownstones for generations to freelance creatives in the Bronx, Airbnb is helping New Yorkers stay in their homes and supporting their vibrant communities.

But home sharing is more than a way for New Yorkers to make ends meet. Every guest who spends money at a local business on a host’s recommendation contributes to the health of small businesses, including many in neighborhoods beyond the traditional hotel district of midtown Manhattan.

96% Airbnb hosts who share an entire home have only one entire home listing

$4,631 median annual earnings from home sharing citywide

89% of listings are located outside the hotel district of Midtown Manhattan

One Host, One Home

We are committed to working with New York leaders to promote responsible home sharing throughout the five boroughs. Central to that effort is a “One Host, One Home” policy that will limit hosts to one entire-home listing in New York City.
